Description
Now that many of his regular troops are reduced, you must face his highly trained forces. When they're not in the wilderness slaughtering our rebel soldiers, they are found deep in the back of the Kurzen Compound, in a cave they call the Stockpile.
I know many of Kurzen's troops personally, and I know they are skilled, loyal, and cruel. This is no easy task I set before you, your name.
After you defeat them, report to Lieutenant Doren, my commanding officer. He will want your report firsthand.
In progress
Sergeant Yohwa tells me you are skilled and brave, your class. Do you have something to report?
Completion
your name. Sergeant Yohwa trusted your abilities, and I trust her. The defeat you brought to Kurzen's forces is almost too much to hope for. I had feared we rebels were alone, and alone we could never stand up against the Colonel's brilliance.
Perhaps hope of our survival yet remains.
